Trump’s 2020 election claims now rely on disputed Census report

Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestylePresident Donald Trump is relying on a dubious Census Bureau report to claim over 24,000 noncitizens voted illegally in the 2020 election and assert that he won. An investigation revealed the report was produced by affiliates of the Trump-aligned America First Policy Institute rather than Census Bureau career civil servants. Election law experts criticized the analysis for using opaque and flawed methodology, noting that Census data lacks unique identifiers to reliably match with voter rolls. Experts highlighted that even if the 24,000 figure were accurate, it would represent less than 0.02 percent of all votes and would not alter the outcome in any state.
